Otherwise, this could result in degradation of the performance of this equipment. The Separator is specifically designed for mechanical clot engagement and is particularly helpful in acute-on-chronic thrombosis, in-stent/in-bypass fresh occlusion, and in below-the-knee (BTK) and all the way to the pedal arch thrombi localization (Figure 1). Many of the first-generation mechanical endovascular devices for thrombus removal have failed to be adequately successful or have been associated with unacceptable complication rates. Figure 1. 1.

Penumbras IndigoAspiration System can be used to remove emboli and thrombi from vessels of the peripheral arterial and venous systems, and for treatment of pulmonary embolism. Giri J, Sista A, Weinberg I, et al. Penumbra Launches Indigo System Lightning 12 and Appoints Medical and Immediately postprocedure, a decrease in PA pressure from 35 to 27 mm Hg was observed. There may be additional risks of which we are not presently aware or that we currently believe are immaterial which could have an adverse impact on our business. Thomas S. Maldonado, MD

In addition to Lightning 12, the Indigo System also now includes Lightning 8 which combines the Indigo System CAT 8 Aspiration Catheter with Lightning Intelligent Aspiration for the removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from the peripheral arterial and venous systems, and for the treatment of pulmonary embolism. At the 30-day follow-up, the patient no longer had residual shortness of breath or exertional dyspnea. INDIGO Aspiration Tubing: As part of the INDIGO Aspiration System, the INDIGO Sterile Aspiration Tubing is indicated to connect the INDIGO Aspiration Catheters to the Penumbra Aspiration Pump. The patients echocardiogram showed normal RV size and function. INDIGO Aspiration System with LIGHTNING Aspiration Tubing Indication for Use Bjrck M, Earnshaw JJ, Acosta S, et al.

The reasons have been mainly related to the limited trackability, the risk of vessel injury, and/or the incidence of incomplete revascularization, and the risk of bleeding and hemolysis.2,3. Use the INDIGO Aspiration System in conjunction with fluoroscopic visualization. Utility of a power aspiration-based extraction technique as an initial and secondary approach in the treatment of peripheral arterial thromboembolism: results of the multicenter PRISM trial. Penumbra, Inc.'s Indigo Aspiration System with Lightning 7 and Lightning 12 have secured CE Mark and are now commercially available in Europe. The latest addition to the catheter line, the CAT12, is Penumbras most torqueable and trackable catheter to date. Internet Explorer presents a security risk. A 0.014-inch wire was used to track to the occlusion, and the Indigo System CAT6 was used to aspirate the clot (. Mentors and Protgs: Conversations on Career and Craft With Alda L.
